...but I am caught up in 16 years of wanting to ttc and finally being able to and wanting to talk to someone other than my partner about these things!

So, Liberty. For our daughter, not son, obviously Wink what are your first and honest thoughts? Middle names are chosen but with just Liberty, no other info, what do you think?

OP posts:
Are your children’s vaccines up to date?

Love it, and actually like Bertie as the less obvious nn too!

Warning I think George Osborne has a dd of this name!

I know 2 liberty's. Shorten to lib/ Libby. A lovely name

Although bear in mind there would be some opportunities for teenage nudge-and-wink piss taking. Are you taking the liberty fnarr fnarr etc

Really like it. It's strong and pretty at the same time. I've known two little Libertys (working in early years) and they were both gorgeous, independent little things.

Personally not keen (I like Libby - just be careful she doesn't become Bertie!)

However - after 16 years, congratulations and if you love it you definitely have to go for it!

One of my favourite names Smile

A beautiful name

moxon · 07/10/2014 19:51

I actually like it. But if you've got twins maybe steer clear of liberty and dignity, or liberty and freedom, or suchlike. Smile

Love it....and Libby if you want to shorten

OverAndAbove · 07/10/2014 19:44

I like it too. Shortened to Libby is nice also!
